Location is convenient, just a few minutes walk from the entrance to the NP, beach and restaurants. 
I stayed in three different rooms as arrived with a group tour then stayed on. 

The double double rooms in two storey block overlooking the pool are modern and a great size with comfortable beds, and soft sheets and towels. Some are bigger than others, not sure how many price levels there are. I would recommend these rooms.

The single/ lead in rooms are in need of upgrade with tiny bathrooms, less natural light, no privacy curtains and a slight whiff of sewerage. They're also closer to main road so expect traffic noise from about 7am (and with the park so near traffic is constant as are the whistles). Bed was still comfortable but my sheets were stained and towels were smaller and threadbare compared to those in newer rooms). I don't think these rooms represent good value for money and I don't recommend. 

Air conditioning was hit and miss. Some rooms were freezing at 24 degrees setting, others were warm at 16 degrees setting. When engineer was available along with English speaking reception issues were dealt with quickly. At other times issues waited overnight (which isn't ideal when room is too warm for comfort)  

Breakfast was passable, at best. 

Service was very mixed. The main receptionist (manager?) speaks good English and was helpful and friendly. Others were friendly enough but communication was sometimes difficult and there was an impatient edge.  Owner is awful: rude, impatient, clearly only interested in personal gain.  When I raised an issue she was quick to dismiss me until she realised I had been part of the tour group, when she was suddenly more interested in finding a compromise. 

Overall I definitely wouldn't recommend lead in rooms, and I'd be hesitant to recommend the better rooms while the service is so unreliable.

A mixed bag - room choice makes a big difference

The ceiling in our bedrooms was flaking and cracked with chipped/pieces missing and needs to be repaired
Commentary  breakfast was flavorless with small portions. we ordered an extra fruit plates that contained small portions of fruit on it 1 banana, a couple small pieces of pineapple, some  watermelon and a couple pieces of papaya and which we said we would pay for but it was way over priced for what we got.  
Bathroom had one small window and very dim lighting
their complementary toiletries were 3 very small bars of soap and  toilet wouldn't always flush unless you stood there and held the handle down. 
Except for 1 staff member the rest of the staff was not overly engaging 
Check in was slow and it is the first time I have stayed some where that we had to personally return all our towels/face clothes, used and unused, and  remote to the registration desk upon check out. 
Sheets were clean, beds comfortable, AC worked well.
Beautiful pool area although the water did look questionable and I would not take children there in the late afternoon or evening. More of an adult environment 
It is very close to the beach and park,  lots of wildlife visitors including monkeys.
Beautiful flowers and foliage,
Hotel was overpriced for what it is, there are much nicer and less expensive hotels in the area.

Wouldn't go back

This was def not one of the better hotels I have ever stayed in and also not the worst.
The ceiling in our bedrooms was flaking/cracked/chipped/pieces missing  and def needs repair
Poor breakfast with small portions. ordered extra fruit plates that small portions of fruit on it 1 banana, a couple small pieces of pineapple watermelon and a couple pieces of papaya and was way over charged. ( about 9 CDN) 
Charged for a cup of ice, Bathroom had one small window and with very dim lighting so it was like taking a shower in the dark, complementary toiletries were 3 very petite small bars of soap, toilet wouldn't always flush. Hotel behind us could see right into our bathrooms and looked like possibly had mold on the bathroom floor 
Restaurant/bar  night staff were friendly and engaging, daytime staff not 
Check in was slow and painful,  although we had to return all our towels/face clothes (Clean and dirty ones) as well as the remote to the registration desk upon check out, check out a breeze
Sheets were clean and it is very close to the beach and park, monkeys on the roof and in the walk ways was a nice surprise. 
Beautiful flowers and foliage, AC worked well
Pool is nice looking although the water looked questionable and not a family friendly pool in the evening, including very early evening.
Hotel was overpriced for what it is and there are nicer and less expensive hotels in the area. Over all we will not be staying here again, recommend for others to check around and chose  a better place for less cost.

Not bad, not good

They are disorganized. They didn't find our reservation even after calling them days before. Breakfast is rationaed (rice and beans , a toast , and eggs. Somewhat precey. Room was ok. Location is perfect, but I wouldn't stay a second time there.


Average

Our room was large and clean with up to date tile floors and wonderful bathroom.  
The pool was a nice temperature and clean with a special pool with jets and a waterfall providing background sound.  The breakfast was three choices of entrees, the usual Costa Rica food.  The location was ideal - near the local beach, and very near the park entrance.  Many restaurants were within easy walking distance.  Good air conditioning.  There were gardens with beautiful flowers around the rooms.

Beautiful, clean room.  Close to entrance of Manuel Antonio NP

You will pay between 100 and 120 $ (depending on your head) to sleep in an old room which smells musty and whose walls and the rest need a solid renovation.
The bathroom is old and we had no hot water.
Dirty and noisy place.
The swimming pool is almost on the car park.
There are dozens of hotels close to the entrance of the park..millenium hotel , vela , etc choose any one , except this one !

Hotel vetuste , unprincipled owner , tourist catcher ! To be avoided ...

Picture the worst Motel 6 or Super 8 in the United States and those would be better than this place.  Not entirely dirty, but didn’t feel clean.  
Staff was not overly friendly, but not rude either.  Totally basic room,  no frills.  No washcloths or hand towels.  They provide you one cheap scratchy towel each per guest, which you have to return when you check out.  Pretty gross returning your used towels at check out.  They also give you the TV remote and air conditioning controller, which also need to be returned at check out.  There are no hangers on closet and no hair dryer.  Just the hard beds with very cheap and basic bedding, TV and a dresser. The shower had a hole in the wall at the bottom instead of a faucet and there is a large open window in the bathroom.  Given the right angle, people could see in from property behind the hotel.  
The beer bottle at each door serves as a classy ash tray.  
We didn’t use the pool, honestly it just didn’t look clean.  
The property itself is dirty, the restaurant had taken egg shells and threw them into a pile near the landscaping.  Maybe this is the green way to do it, but they could hide it better.  
The ONE perk of this hotel is close proximity to beach and park.  We only stayed one night and left early.

I’d rather sleep in my car.  Skip it.

Unfortunately, they did not accept my Credit Card submitted via Booking.com. They Insisted on obtaining more information about my Credit Card and at the end refused to confirm my booking claiming that some things are missing to charge my card. Showed zero flexibility and kept harassing and pressuring me for more information. Very unprofessional and they complicate things without no reason. Anyway, I canceled and I will take another hotel somewhere else. Just disappointing....

Could not even manage to book via Booking.com

A clean hotel with good service and air conditioning. Just a few minutes walk from.the park entrance. The hotel has it's own pool great for cooling off. Just a few minutes from the local beach. There is an onsite restaurant for breakfast.

Good three star

This hotel is past its sell by date. 
The accommodation is tired, the plumbing unreliable and the pool, whilst clean, has aged furniture and looks very tatty with several missing tiles.
Overall the place is dingy and requires a comprehensive make over and renewal programme 
It strikes me the owners are more interested in making money from parking for the nearby wildlife reserve than in running a hotel.
